Chemotype genetics-true
Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the lab-verifiable signal that stays true to a cultivar’s genetics, which is why scientists classify cannabis by chemical profile (a “chemovar”) rather than by name (Hazekamp & Fischedick 2012). Cannabinoid type is set largely by a single gene (the THC:CBD ratio); about 96% of commercial flower is Type I, THC-dominant. Terpene profiles are sourced from Certificates of Analysis (COA) and roll out as Areto’s lab-verified data comes online.
Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica, sativa and hybrid are a retail shopping convention — not a reliable guide to genetics or effects. When researchers analysed 89,923 commercial samples across six states, these labels did not predict a plant’s terpene or cannabinoid profile, and a genome-wide study found sativa- and indica-labelled plants to be genetically indistinct (PLOS ONE 2022; Nature Plants 2021). The labels are so fluid that AK-47, a hybrid, won “Best Sativa” at the 1999 Cannabis Cup and “Best Indica” four years later. For an accurate, genetics-true picture, see the chemotype above.

About Golden Highland Thai
This pure sativa originally grows at an altitude of over 2000 metres on Doj Chang Mountain, a magnificent piece of land where probably the strongest Thai sativas grow. These plants grow very tall very quickly, they grow extremely vigorously and offer a tremendously good quality. Golden Highland Thai can be grown very well indoors with a little patience and know-how. For beginners, however, it can be a bit of a challenge, but with a little effort and flair, even inexperienced growers should get great results.
The flavours are floral and fruity with earthy, pine-like tones in the background and a hint of menthol. Golden Highland Thai produces tremendous results and it is truly beautiful, this sativa really offers everything you would expect from a pure Thai. If you are looking for the ultimate Thai, look no further...Golden Highland Thai is ‘the real deal’!
